Google Inc. faces European Union antitrust complaints from publishers and a map provider who say the search engine discriminates against their sites, regulators said.
The European Commission took over part of a complaint initially filed with the German antitrust agency in January after it opened its own probe, said Jonathan Todd, a spokesman for the European Commission. The EU and national regulators don’t usually investigate the same issues in parallel, he said in a telephone interview today.
